The Power Of Motherhood

Mothering in today's world is no easy task. Culture around us seeks to deceive mothers into thinking that what they are doing does not matter in the present or the future. How, as Christian mothers are we called to respond to this deception? We cannot influence generations if we are gullible in our thinking and weak in our walk with the Lord. We must strengthen our minds daily with the Word and be able to discern what righteous thinking is in an evil, anti-family world.

Satan knows the power motherhood holds. He would like us to perceive it as lowly, despised, wasteful and even burdensome as is so commonly believed today. It is evidenced in broken homes and neglected children---a result of generational breakdown and sin. Lies that are common for mothers today are: "It's too hard, I can't handle it." or "I'm wasting my time, there are 'greater' things I can do with my life." Dear mothers, there is no greater calling than right where our gracious Lord has so sovereignly placed you, to raise precious souls for the King of Kings. Souls are eternal, and earthly, worldy pursuits are not. Let us always keep that perspective---with one eye on the present and another on the eternal.

So therefore His heart must be our heart. We want to walk in the full anointing, joy and glory of motherhood that he has purposed for us. We must free ourselves of the bondages that hinder motherhood. That means getting rid of all the lies, that means not accepting the worlds way of parenting, that means taking up our cross and dying to self. We must immerse ourselves in our role and delight in it!

Comfort Place

Almost anyone of us has a place to live and we called it a house. A house is a place, which is not only for living, shelter from sunlight and rain, but a house is also a place where everyone lives inside has their own activities, doing their hobbies, relaxing, and many things such as loving, caring, supporting and respecting each other are the most important thing. When we go home after working whole day, when we want to enjoy our “favorite place” to release stress, relax for a moment with our beloved person, those kind of feelings are gone.

During our vacation in some place out of city, there is a moment we miss our “favorite place”, which is our home, although the place was so fine. And when we come back home, we are very pleased to be there in time after being in another place.

Why this can be happened?

Naturally, people like regular activities, with other words that people don’t like a change.
Regular activities may make us comfortable with that. When we get use to do some activities regularly, once we don’t do that due some reason, we would have “loosing” feeling, something we missed in our life. For example, we have been living at a house since 6 years ago. Once upon time, we have to move to another house. For sure, it feels so hard for us to leave the house.

There are many things to a consideration to make our selves feel at home, such as whom we live with and how good the relationship is within. In fact, many people still consider their home is not as their “favorite place” to stay.
Probably, this could happened because of careless from each other between member of family in their house.

No matter the house is luxurious or in contrary, convenience in our house doesn’t depend on that matter. But its individually matter. We are talking here about relationship. If our convenience at home depend on our selves, why we can’t start with our selves first.

Let’s share our love, peaceful, care and respect to anyone around us wherever we are belong to. Thus, they will feel secure and comfort stay at home.
